Lyrically, Megan inverts Juicy J's famous "Bandz a Make Her Dance" line so it's from a female perspective.
Instead of the bands making her dance, the dancer is making him blow his money on her.

The song "Dance (A$$)" by Megan Thee Stallion starts off with her telling the DJ to bring back the beat. She then references a line from Juicy J's song "Slob On My Knob" where he says "Shut the f*** up." The chorus itself revolves around making a man spend money on Megan as she dances for him. She repeats the words "Dance, make him blow them bands" multiple times, emphasizing the idea that she will dance to make him spend his money. She mentions taking her baby out in the stroller and also references her past where she had to train "shitty" women. Megan then raps about wanting a man's stash rather than his petty cash and promises that she is worth the money.
Overall, the lyrics of "Dance (A$$)" promote Megan's confidence and sexual prowess, with a focus on using that to make money. She plays off of traditional gender roles, where men are expected to provide for women, and she asserts her own power and control in the situation. The song can be seen as empowering for women who may feel that their bodies and sexuality are a source of shame or objectification, but Megan reclaims those aspects and uses them for her own gain.
